MacBook Pro :: No Sound From It After Restart Or Sleep

Dec 3, 2014

My computer: Late 2008 MBP 15" OSX 10.9.5 

Whenever I shutdown or sleep the computer, the sound does not work when I start it up or wake it up. The startup sound does not play, and the audio controls are not greyed out. Audio does not work through headphones either. Plugging in and unplugging headphones does not solve the problem. 

Sometimes a PRAM reset will solve the problem, and an SMC reset always brings the audio back, but only until I shut it down or put it to sleep again. 

Info:
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9.5)

MacBook Pro :: Cannot Restart After Sleep Mode

Aug 25, 2009

I was using my Macbook Pro, finished, put it to sleep and left for a few hours. When I came back it was off. I try to turn it on and the power light comes on and I can hear the disk for about 3 second and then it just shuts off again. I searched the apple support site for this problem and I've done these things. [URL]. I play computer games on it and often the battery would drain. I would plug it in when the 10 minute warning came up, and the little light on the MagSafe plug would turn from green to amber. Lately it had been turning back to green even though the battery icon on the screen said the battery wasn't charged, sometimes the computer would even shut down even though it was plugged in (again, it was plugged in and the light was green, even though the battery icon said it wasn't charged). Maybe it's related to my computer not turning on?

MacBook :: Won't Shutdown / Restart / Sleep Or Startup Properly

May 6, 2010

During start up I get the apple logo and everything boots although it takes forever, the apple logo goes away screen goes blue, and sometimes it loads to the login screen about 10 mins later, and sometimes it just sits there. - During restart, it shuts down makes all the appropriate sounds, screen goes dark, and all you hear is a residual humming from the inside under the keyboard, and then never restarts. (You have to force shutdown) - Same story as above with both shutdown, and sleep.

The only way to get it to load successfully is in safe mode, but even then it still wont do the above problem correctly, it just at least starts.

- Resetting the PRAM, Holding power button for 5 seconds until repeating flashes, I've tried reinstalling snow leopard 5 times, I've checked for updates, I've repaired disk permissions, I've repaired the disk, I've even tried stepping the OSX back down to 10.3(The original operating software for this MB)

MacBook Pro :: Double Tap Restarting After Sleep Mode / Restart / Shut Down

Oct 23, 2010

so i've been having an issue with the double tap to hi-light any text i wish to copy. Such things as double tapping the URL bar to hi-light the whole url so i can just retype w/e site i want to go to. Every time i restart or turn off or my mbp goes to sleep and i reopen it, the double tap function resets. So i'm forced to go to the system preferences > trackpad> "double-click speed" to slowest in order to get my double tap to hi-light anything again. Is there something wrong with my mbp? Or is there a way i can save the settings when i put the double-click speed to slow so that it wont reset every time my mbp needs to be woken up or restarted?

MacBook Pro :: Clicking Sound - Hard Drive Sleep?

May 5, 2010

My computer (MBP 5,5) makes this sound several times throughout a day of use. It sounds exactly like the little "click" sound the computer makes, when i close the lid and have it go into sleep mode. I guess it's the hard drive going to sleep sound? If i'm right, i really don't understand why the hard drive goes to sleep at these random times. I've disabled that in System Preferences - at least i think so. It's this option, right?: [URL] Also, my MBP is always (only use it as a desktop with an external monitor connected to it) on a mStand on my table, so it can't be the Sudden Motion Sensor either.

MacBook Pro :: Why Eject Sound Occurs When In Sleep Mode

Dec 6, 2014

I have a 2008 MacBook Pro and recently installed Yosemite. Ever since then, the startup sound of the CD drive being checked has been occurring spontaneously when it's in sleep mode with the lid shut. It's driving me crazy because it wakes me up in the middle of the night and I can't figure out why it's happening. This never once happened before the OS upgrade.

MacBook Pro (15-inch Early 2008), OS X Yosemite (10.10)

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Mac Doesn't Restart Or Wake From Sleep?

Jul 1, 2012

My iMac becomes totally unresponsive after sleeping for any length of time. It will not wake from sleep, even if I connect a wired keyboard; and it will not shut down or restart until I reset the SMC by unplugging the comptuer from power for 15-30 seconds. I can restart the computer after resetting the SMC, but the same thing happens every time the computer goes to sleep. 

I have also set the computer sleep slider to "never" and reset the PRAM. Although people have been complaining about this issue for months, Apple's Lion updates have not addressed this issue.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4), 3.06MHz Core i3

I'm running OS X 10.10.1 on a 2010 Mac Pro with a Bose Companion 5 USB sound system.  Everything works great and as expected except when I restart the Mac Pro.  The sound settings switch off the Bose speakers and reverts back to the internal speakers of the computer.  I have to go in everytime and reset it back to the Bose sound system.  I never had this problem using Mavericks.

OS X Mavericks :: Mail Sound Stops Working - Restart Fixes For A While

Jun 25, 2014

I am on Mavericks 10.9.3 (brand new MB Air 13.3).  I configured Mail with my IMAP accounts and it is able to send and receive mail.  The problem is that the sound stops working after a while.  When I sleep and wake the computer, at some point, it no longer makes the whoosh when sending a message.  None of the other sounds work either. I have updated everything very recently.

OS X :: Tiny Beep Sound On HD Sleep Mode?

Jan 25, 2009

Just installed a second Samsung F1 500GB (HD502IJ) hard drive in my 2x1.8 G5 Power Mac. I have the "Energy Saver" option on default and the system turns the hard drives off when they're not being used. Everything is working good with this drive except one thing: When the system turns the Samsung to sleep, there's a tiny beep/sound, like coming from the motherboard or something. So I was wondering:

1. Should there be a beep on sleep?
2. How do I turn this annoying beep off?

MacBook Air :: Airport Connection/Sleep Versus Sleep Display?

Apr 9, 2008

I leave my Air on pretty much all the time, and put it to sleep while moving around etc. Sleeping it disconnect the Airport connection - which if very annoying. At a desk I've just been dimming the display all the way off in order to keep my connection.

However, I recently noticed that by setting a "sleep display" hot corner, my network connection is maintained.

I have 2 questions:
1) Is sleep display equivalent (functionally) to simply dimming the display all the way down?
2) Is there a way to either set up a shortcut to sleep the display (other than a hot corner) and/or set it so that only the DISPLAY sleeps after 'x' minutes?

MacBook Pro :: Sleep Light Doesn't Blink When MBP Left To Sleep?

Oct 10, 2009

I set the MBP to sleep in 10 min through the Energy Saver pref with the option to sleep the hdds. When it's about to sleep the screen dims, then turns black, then the sleep light comes on but does not blink no matter how long I leave it. The blinking only happens when I close the lid or when I select the Sleep option under the Apple logo. Is that normal behavior?
